Beyonce's father Mathew Knowles is proud of how his daughter, 28, consoled Taylor Swift at Sunday's MTV Video Music Awards.

After winning video of the year, Beyonce invited Swift on stage to finish her Best Female Video acceptance speech, which Kanye West famously interrupted earlier in the night because he felt Beyonce deserved to win.

"It wasn't my decision to bring Taylor out," Mathew Knowles, who also serves as Beyonce's manager, tells Usmagazine.com. "It was all Beyonce's decision. I want to be clear about that. My job is to execute and come up with some ideas, but ultimately that was Beyonce's decision."

"I've always said the thing that makes me most proud about Beyonce is not how many records she sold or how many plaques she has or how many awards; it's that she's a genuine good person," he tells Us. "I know it's hard for people to believe that she can really be that nice of a person, but she really is."
